Right, austin. Pretty Scrooge-like, that. Probably a sign of things to come.

Liked your graphic too, BTW.

Also, on the topic of “poor little Chase” I might direct your attention to the fact that the JP Morgan Chase conglomerate paid out $9 billion in bonuses to its hotshot investment division employees last year, to say nothing of the stockholders.

They also made a tidy $11.7 billion in profits.

That’s:   $11,700,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.00

          — or 11.7 x 10 to the 29th power.

Oh no, wait. My bad.

The number I gave is actually 11.7 gajillion dollars. Chase isn’t projected to make that much profit at least until 2015.
